ISLAMABAD: The Federal Interior Minister Rehman Malik offered to withdraw cases against Brahamdagh Bugti, Harbiyar Marri and other Baloch leaders if they were willing to return back to the country, Express News reported. 

Speaking to the media after a meeting on Aghaz-e-Haqooq-e-Balochistan, Malik said that there has to be a political solution to the Balochistan issue and that action needs to be taken to save the country.

He added that he had asked Balochistan, Jamhoori Watan Party (JWP) provincial president Shahzain Bugti and Bilal Bugti to choose their leaders whom the government would talk to, but nothing had transpired in this regard.

Showing his discontent for those "who were never satisfied with the government" he said, “Where do we go? We are criticised whether we call an All Parties Conference (APC) or if we don’t”.

“The APC, which is being called for the resolution of the Balochistan issue is now being opposed.”
